Dimensions in Aphelium are parallel universes where reality is altered, offering new challenges and rewards. These dimensions allow astronauts to move and interact more dynamically with the environment. Here’s what you need to know about dimensions and how to navigate them effectively.
Shared Lands: While exploring dimensions, you still share some parts with landowners. The percentage you share with the land owner is linked to the rarity of the land.
Astronaut Movement: In these parallel universes, astronauts can move around the land, collecting resources and engaging in more interactions.
Resource Collection and Dimensional Keys
Gathering Resources: Players collect regular and specific resources by completing NPC jobs on the job board.
Dimensional Keys: Use stickers, WAXP, or WUFF to get “Dimensional Keys”
Activating Portals: Using a Dimensional Key opens a portal on a random land, transforming it into a themed mining area with visual and functional changes. Use the /travel command by holding your key to reach them.
Temporary Transformation: The land transforms temporarily, providing a set timeframe to explore, fight, level up or extract resources.
Extending Stay: Stay beyond the timer by paying costs in WAXP, WUFF, or stickers.
Visibility and Movement
Limited Visibility: Players start with limited visibility, only seeing and moving to adjacent blocks initially.
Energy Consumption: Movement consumes energy points.
Getting Lamps: Increase visibility by getting lamps through NPC jobs, allowing for strategic movement and better planning.
